These students will be able to choose their teammates by drawing names out of a hat. The students will be captains for a week then the next week someone else will be captain. This strategy will allow everyone to be a captain, but doesn't allow the captains to just pick their friends or the most athletic students on one team. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:53:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699950 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699974 For this grouping strategy, the class will be divided into teams. They are going to use color of eyes, color of shirt, favorite color, or color of hair to get into their groups. This allows the students to be randomly placed into teams without having any biases. Also as students are walking into the classroom, they will be handed a piece of a paper with a shape, color, or number written on the paper. This strategy will allow special needs students to determine what shape, color, or number they are; and find their proper group. This strategy will conserve time by already placing the students in groups. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699974 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699983 This strategy involves the teacher spending time with just one student. According to Vaughn et al. (2001), teacher found this grouping strategy to be the least effective. Although this method can be used in the classroom, there would have to be multiple teachers or teacher's aides helping with each individual. During a basketball lesson, the teacher could work individually with a student on their dribbling skills, shooting form, and passing skills. After school one-on-one work with the students can be highly effective. These students are not having constant distractions from the other students. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:54:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699983 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699990 Depending on the class size, one or two students will be assigned a special needs student (partner). They will have their partner for a week then move to a different partner. This gives students a chance to learn about different needs for students with disabilities. At the beginning of the year all of the students enrolled in the course, must attended a mandatory meeting explaining the different disabilities that they are going to face, and how they should handle certain situations. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699990 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699997 During this strategy, there are two or more teachers are working together to teach a class full of diverse learners (Deiker, n.d..) Most of the time there is a general education teacher paired with a special needs teacher. During P.E. Partners classes this strategy should be implemented. The physical education teacher can collaborate with the special education teacher on assignments and making sure all the student's needs are being met and the IEP is being followed properly.]]> 2018-02-02 22:54:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227699997 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700046 According to Stanberry (2018), students with disabilities need an individualized education programs (IEP). During this meeting, several people are involved in determining what the student's learning needs are, as well as the services the school will provide. Once the IEP has been established the teachers and the teacher's aides must be in constant communication on what the student needs. Use clear, concise language that parents and the community can understand. Keeping the parents involved in their child's education can be beneficial. While implementing the Partners grouping strategy, it is important that the students without disabilities are communicating with the teacher about how the students are responding to the activities. The students are also learning communication skills with their partner. Since some students are not verbal communicators, teachers and student have to learn different communication techniques. This could be mean students learning American Sign Language or communicating with individuals by using pictures.]]> 2018-02-02 22:55:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700046 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700049 The use of technology can make learning easier. Free online tools such as Padlet can increase collaboration between groups. For group projects, the students can have a shared group document that each group member can add their own ideas while away from their group. The current generation of students are always using technology. Most students have cell phones, laptops, or a tablet of some sort. 
Also the use of wii sports can get students involved by integrating technology into the classroom (Layne, n.d.) Having a large projection of dancing videos on a wall will allow all students to be able to see the video and learn the dances. With all the pros of technology there are some cons. When using technology, teachers must be plan for the technology to mess up or not work. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700049 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700053 The class will be divided into several groups that will research their own piece of the overall "puzzle." Students will each be assigned a different health concerns and at the end of the lesson, each group will present their information. They will also put all their "pieces" together and present the total "puzzle" to other classes to inform them of different health concerns. ]]> 2018-02-02 22:55:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227700053 sbledsoe2 https://padlet.com/sbledsoe2/g1heaxbd16fq/wish/227714005 Dieker,, L.
